"Futility Closet"... the BOOK!


A couple posts back I mentioned some books worthy of your consideration during the Holiday shopping season... you can now add another: turns out Greg Ross has put together a compendium of his best miscellaneous, quirky "amusements" for a "Futility Closet" book (this is GREAT news!):

Here's a nice, recent geometry tidbit from the Futility Closet blog:

And for those who missed it, I interviewed Greg at Math-Frolic just about one year ago:
